Kavala

Much of the country consists of peninsulas and islands in the Aegean, Ionian, and Mediterranean Seas. It borders Albania, the Republic of Macedonia, Bulgaria, and Turkey. Ancient Greece was one of Europe's first urban civilizations, and the origin of much of the arts, language, philosophy, politics, and sports of western society. The cultural heritage and spectacular mountains and beaches draw tourists from far away. Eighty percent of Greece is mountainous, with Mount Olympus being the highest peak at 2,918 metres. The country consists of nine geographic regions: Macedonia, Central Greece, the Peloponnese, Thessaly, Epirus, the Aegean Islands, Thrace and Crete. Few countries can pride themselves on a heritage as important to Western civilization as Greece. A range of first class historic landmarks remind one of the days when the great Greek emperors and writers made their mark on the development of science, literature and democracy. No less than 17 of those monuments are listed as World Heritage Sites. However, the many charming little islands, sandy beaches and picturesque whitewashed coastal towns are at least as much a reason to come for the millions of tourists that this Mediterranean country receives each year.

Those islands include many off greek ancient sites but also creeks and beaches. The capital of the region is Komotini, a city very close to Turkey, thus the majority of the heritage there is mostly muslim. It is the place where you will find the most number of mosques in the entire country. The biggest city of the region is not her capital though, but Alexandroupoli, which is even closer to Turkey. It’s one of the newest cities of the country and it’s a big commercial port. The most touristic place of this city is the Alexandroupolis Cathedral. The region is also famous for its national parks. with its most important one being the Nestos National Park, located in the south of the region. In this park you can find rivers and the Vistonida lake, which you should not neglect to visit.
